Athens is home to some of the coolest bus shelters around, thanks to the Athens Area Arts Council, Athens-Clarke County Unified Government, and Athens Transit Service.

The arts council now has commissioned and installed eight fanciful bus shelters – the first four with a transportation theme, the latest ones focused on music. While artists.
